Volume 2 Playing with the Tribe Chapter 389 The Yue Tribe
Looking down at the entire Ning City from the air, every Ding tribesman was busy with his work and goals like busy ants. They went to their respective work sites and brought the required materials such as forage, wood, stones, game, and dry goods back to Ningcheng. All kinds of garbage generated in Ningcheng are then transported to a garbage disposal site outside the city, where the garbage is integrated and piled into manure to prepare for planting crops in spring next year.
Some birds and small beasts that are not afraid of humans will look for some food discarded by humans around the huge pile of compost, and their relationship with humans is further advanced. Tinch once spotted some birds similar to pigeons and turtledoves around, not as colorful as pigeons, but more intimate than turtledoves. For example, foxes, coyotes and jackals come at night to look for food, and in the morning they return to the mountains and forests when humans leave the city.
Tinch's attitude towards these animals is to let them forage around as long as they don't attack humans. They can destroy some rotting meat, etc., and will not bring disease to the surrounding environment.
Outside the garbage heap, there is a large pit in which the urine produced by humans and all kinds of livestock is inside, and the feces produced have long been piled up in the large manure heap. At the edge of the urine pit, every once in a while, someone would come over to collect the white object produced on it. That's nitrate, and although it produces less, it always accumulates a lot. Throughout the year, more than 3,000 catties of nitrate have been collected before and after.
Every once in a while, the red deer will take people to purify the nitrate according to the process operated by Ding Qi before, using the ratio between the nitrate soil and plant ash, mixing it into a solution and then purifying it, and then boiling the purified solution to get the real potassium nitrate. As for the process that will produce some nitrates and the like, which is commonly known as brine. It's just that this kind of brine, Ding Qi is strictly forbidden to use it to order tofu, it's too disgusting! But brine can be used to improve the fertility of the soil, and all of it is composted.
In addition, every morning, the cleaning team in Ningcheng will pile up the collected manure and garbage in the fields where the crops have been harvested according to the plan for natural composting. After piling up a piece of land, sprinkle loess on it to cover it, so that the smell will not be blown into the city by the wind, or too many birds and beasts will turn the covered area upside down.
Next to the field of Chinese cabbage was a field of green onions about three acres. Yi planted all the green onion seeds harvested in the summer and the green onion seeds brought back by Moo later, and got these three acres of land and about 40,000 green onions, the specific number of which was counted by Yi Lingxue and Dan, two tribal teachers. Just like they count the number of cabbage seeds, they have a lot of time anyway, and for them, there is a sense of accomplishment in reporting specific numbers to the leader.
This batch of green onions, except for some of them will be covered with animal skins or fish skin greenhouses to keep warm, and the rest will naturally overwinter in the fields and withstand the cruelty of nature. The use of greenhouses is also to avoid damage to the green onions due to too cold weather. Next to the bamboo forest, Ding Qi also specially built a hide greenhouse of about half an acre, which is planted with leeks, just so that he can eat some fresh vegetables in winter. There is a special fire channel to heat the greenhouse.
Looking further to the east and west of Ningcheng, two large patches of meadow enclosed in a fence, free horses, cows, and donkeys are grazing with their heads down, trying to minimize their activities and accumulate more fat in their bodies in order to fight the coming winter. At the edge of the pasture, there are also five or six special wranglers who ride horses and lead dogs to patrol the area, so as not to be lurked by some predators and cause damage to the livestock.
According to Ding Qi's plan, all sheep, pigs and pheasants are intensively managed and raised, just like pig farms, specialized sheep farms and chicken farms in the 21st century, specializing in fattening and breeding. It is possible to save on the amount of feed to be fed. As for the quail, this has already begun
kind of operation. Intensive feeding has increased a lot of labor manpower, but in Ding Qi's view, there is nothing to worry about, as long as everyone can be fed and clothed, everyone is scrambling to do it.
Further south of the city, a large group of people were lining up in two groups heading west.
Tinch is off again!
This time, their destination was Tongcun, and they brought a total of 50 people before and after, one person and two horses. In addition, thick animal skin clothes and animal skin tents are carried with you. On each trip, Tinch's requirements for the warriors were to be fully armed, and lizard leather armor, bison leather armor, knives, bows and arrows, and his own backpack must be carried with him.
On this trip, each person also brought two bronze shovels and a bronze pickaxe, in order to dig up the kudzu produced there. The best time to dig Kudzu is in November, and now it's time to set off, and it's just right to get to Tongcun.
According to the plan, they will go to Lu Village first, and then to Tong Village, and distribute the 2,000 cabbage plants to Tong Village and Yan Village. As for why the cabbage was not brought to Lucun, it was because Lucun was close to it, and the cabbage could be transported to them after it was harvested. The later the cabbage is harvested, the higher the yield.
The three villages already have a foundation for their own development. All basic types of work are already available, and industries with their own characteristics are getting faster and faster. After surviving this winter, Ding Qi will select some excellent women from the newly exchanged slaves and send them to Salt Village and Copper Village, making them more like a village.
To be honest, Ding Qi hopes to be a leader and a hands-off shopkeeper at the same time. It's a pity that he understands that he can't do it, so in this case, he prefers to go to the wilderness, rush to the front line, and leave the internal affairs of the tribe to Ben and Bucks to take care of.
The exchange meeting is no longer held, and Ben does not need to go to Deer Village for the time being. However, his work content is not missing at all, and he is in the process of coordinating and scheduling personnel.
On the Heathera side, two more squads of warriors and five or six craftsmen have been sent to build an exchange outpost in the east. Some of the buildings that have been built will be reinforced again and heating facilities will be built to ensure that everyone can live comfortably throughout the winter. Their job throughout the winter was to expand the area of Hamura, collecting wood and stone in preparation for the construction of sturdier houses the following spring.
Since it is an outpost, the responsibility it bears is to contact Bei and other tribes to the east.
As for the development to the south, another team of two squads of warriors was stationed at the position of the original scorpion tribe, the captain of this team was the patriarch of the scorpion clan, and the warriors were all warriors of the original scorpion tribe. They have been militarized by the tribe and have reached the standard of ordinary warriors. They were sent out by Ben to build the original poisonous scorpion tribe into an advance base extending to the south, and changed the name to Scorpion Village, so as to strengthen the connection with the surrounding tribes such as the Centipede tribe and the southern tribe of Shannan.
At this time, in a jungle two days away from Scorpion Village, a group of more than 20 primitive people were wielding wooden spears and stone axes in their hands, chasing the three people who were fleeing in a hurry in the distance. Seeing that these three people are dressed as people from the south of the mountain, and one of them is the captain of the elephant trunk who has dealt with Zhuang. The people chasing after them were not the Xia tribe, the people from the southern tribe of the mountains, and the people of the Centipede tribe.
These chasing people are thin and dark-skinned, like thin horse monkeys, and their speed is very fast. It's just their fierce expressions, as if to say: Don't mess with us!
Captain Elephant Trunk was in a panic at this time, and their tribe had planned to come around to hunt and gather some food. This location is far away from the Centipede tribe and does not belong to any tribe, but any tribe can also come over. But unexpectedly, they were attacked by the Yue tribesmen disguised as the Xia tribe. If it weren't for the man named Bristles he had seen in the lead, I'm afraid he would
He didn't know which tribe this was, because he had never seen these people dressed the same as the Xia tribe.
As soon as the group came up, they attacked, as if the Xia tribe was attacking them. It was only after Captain Elephant Trunk shouted the name of the bristles that the group suddenly attacked themselves and the others like crazy. When they saw that they were invincible and fled with a few people, they even sent more than 20 people to follow and pursue, as if they didn't want to let go of a single live mouth.
Further south, there was a group of people who were also black and thin, but dressed like Xia, who were surrounding the corpses that had fallen to the ground, raising their weapons in their hands and shouting excitedly. But soon one of the leading people shouted, and the others immediately did not dare to speak like cicadas. The corpses were apparently from the southern part of the mountain.
"A bunch of fools! I can't even catch a few people, and I'm still yelling here. I wanted to frame the Xia tribe, but I didn't expect to be discovered, resulting in all the previous efforts being wasted, do you think I should kill you directly? ”
A group of people shrank their heads suddenly, not daring to look at the person in front of them anymore, for fear that which action was inappropriate and caused the other party's dissatisfaction, but it would be bad, he really dared to kill!
However, some people dare not violate the majesty of the other party on the surface, but they despise the other party in their hearts: is it not because you are recognized? Blame us?
That's right, the person who is angry in front of him is none other than Captain Bristle, who is recognized by Elephant Trunk.
They had planned to kill the people in the southern part of the mountain, leaving two more alive. The two who saw their Xia tribe's outfit returned to Shannan and told the mammoth leader that it was the Xia tribe who killed them, provoking the real hatred between Shannan and the Xia tribe. didn't expect that he, who was supposed to hide his figure, would show up and be discovered.
Except for himself, the others were a group of warriors who had been secretly trained by the leader of the Yue people, the fierce jackal, and had never shown their faces in front of other tribesmen. These people are the main means by which the Yue tribe provokes the hatred of the Shannan and Xia tribes, in order to weaken the strength of the two tribes, and eventually the Yue tribe will rule all the surrounding tribes.
His identity was discovered, and he wanted to kill people. But he didn't expect that the other party was really cunning, and after bluffing, he found the weak point of the encirclement and fled. Fortunately, the direction of their escape was getting farther and farther away from the southern fall of the mountain. They are alone, even if they are not killed by themselves, they will be eaten by fierce beasts.
Seeing that everyone lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at themselves, Pig's Bristle nodded in satisfaction. Immediately, there was a soft shout, and immediately three people came out of the queue to take off their animal skin clothes and change them into the corpse, and then put on the animal skin clothes on the corpse. Soon, the group disguised everything around them, as if the people of the three Xia tribes had died together with the people from the southern tribe of the mountain.
Thundered~
The elephant trunk was fleeing, and suddenly heard a rumbling sound. When I looked up, I saw a herd of horned deer running from the north, all over the sky, about seven or eight hundred.
Seeing that the pursuers behind him were approaching, Elephant Trunk was ruthless, and rushed to a large rock in front of the deer herd with two of his men, hiding behind.
The herds of herbivores, as if they had the power to shake the heavens and the earth, were a little dismissive of the humans who had just rushed towards the deer herd, and rushed straight ahead, where some humans were waving sticks, stones, and other objects to rush towards the deer.
Such behavior made the deer group angry, which was Chi Guoguo's contempt! This is disrespect for the herd of horned deer, and there is no reverence for nature.
Humanity will pay the price of blood for its actions!
The leading horned deer rushed first, ignoring the wooden spears and stones in the hands of the humans, lowered his head, and howled, and went forward. The deer herd behind him was even more fearless, rumbling over and crushing everything.
